Steve Bartman doesn't get the last 13 years back, and the fact that Cubs fans have waited until now to forgive to guy is fucking pathetic. You want to do what's best for him now after you've selfishly gotten what you think he "stole"? Forget his name, forget he ever existed. But that wont happen because Cubs fans have decided their forgiveness of him is yet another reason for self-congratulations.

I've never met a Cubs fan or really read one here that blames him.

Bartman doesn't deserve an apology, he fucked up..he's a nerd and if his dumb ass was paying attention and took off those gay head phones he'd have realized he should get out of the way not box out Alou on an important out.

Alou wouldn't have caught the ball anyway...not enough piss on his hands...

Cubs should have a promotion where they have Bartman come back and he murders Jim Cuthbert, Teinowitz, and the douchebag who tried to get at him when the cops were walking him out.

Right on both counts. I never blamed Bartman. Booted doubled play ball was the biggest factor.

Don't forget Mariotti

Oddly enough, when Russell had the ball pop off his glove during the 8th the other night, the first name I thought of was Alex Gonzalez.

I was trying to.

Now I remember him.

Thanks boyd.

But while some people may think the way Bartman handled it is "classy", it's also perpetuating his situation. If he had gone on Letterman and/or Leno, exploited the situation for money, or just went out and said, "Fuck you, most of you would have done the same thing and some of you actually did", people would have quickly grown tired of it and he would have faded into oblivion, just a footnote in that game. But by going underground he has turned himself into this thing, like a J.D. Salinger of Cub bad luck.

I'd settle for a dunk tank stunt with 312 Player on the platform. Give Steve three chances to dunk 312 into a Wrigley trough full of game day urine. If he fails, then 312 can punch him in the face and rub poison ivy on his balls.

All procced go to charity.

Most Cubs fans never blamed him for anything ya twat. I've never met a Cubs fan or really read one here that blames him. Most know they'd have reached for it.

He not running for president and he refuses to insert himself into the Cubs' championship celebration.

Bartman was the scapegoat for a Cubs' team that blew a 3-1 lead. But Bartman generally refuses any attention whether it's an interview or a book deal. There are few people in this world that could be that famous and never want to cash in or get some attention for themselves.

I know Ricketts does a lot of nice things for the fans and such, but Bartman deserves some sort of an apology from the Cubs and perhaps some signed memorabilia or complementary tickets.
